She is not officially a candidate yet, but it looks like a campaign trip. Christiane Taubira was in Cergy, in the Val d’Oise, in the Paris region, Tuesday, December 21. A tthird and last trip on the theme of youth. On the spot, the first concerned, young people of ten years who come out of the air-conditioned center, however, have difficulty in recognizing the former Keeper of the Seals. Christiane Taubira introduces herself, “I was deputy then I was minister of justice“.
A little further in a gymnasium, a young girl on rollerblades asks the question that has been on everyone’s lips in recent days. “I wanted to know when are you going to show up? – Introduce myself to what first?“, replied the former minister,”you’re thirteen, when you ask a question it has to be precise … – In the elections?” Christiane Taubira eludes, has fun and leaves a form of suspense hovering since Friday, December 17, she announced that she was considering running.
The young girl is not the only one with this idea in mind. “I am a socialist and here I am really disappointed, Muriel tells him in the streets of Cergy, when we heard you that made us happy, me that made me happy. Thank you for coming to see us“.”She should be a candidate“, continues Muriel, before receiving an answer with a smile”refrain your impatience, you will know in due time“.
The subject finds itself at the heart of a new exchange, this time with Thomas Crépin. 23 years old, he is the coordinator in the Val d’Oise of the Taubira committee for 2022, launched a year and a half ago, to call him to present himself. “Thank you for this hope“, slips the young man to Christiane Taubira who retorts”we owe you an answer“. For Thomas Crépin,”I know that she is playing on this ambivalence for the moment, we will see if in January 2022 it becomes official. It will not be one more candidacy “.
“To carry a message on the social it is the best personality on the left.”

The outcome, however, is hardly in doubt if we are to believe the former socialist deputy for Nièvre Christian Paul, one of his political advisers: “I have no doubt that she wants this candidacy to be irreversible through a primary. If she had arrived without this intention, indeed it would have been one more candidate. But that’s not the goal, there are already some. too much“. Christiane Taubira flies Wednesday, December 22 in Guyana to spend the holidays. She will resume a series of trips throughout France in early January before presenting her program and her team … as a real candidate.
